Let x+y=18---(1), y+z=12---(2),z+x=16---(3) Solving (2)-(3) we get y+z-z-x=12-16 y-x=-4--(4) Solving (4)+(5) we get x+y+y-x=18-4 2y=14 y=14/2=7 Substitute y value in (1) x+7=18 x=18-7=11 Substitute x value in (3) z+11=16 z=16-11=5 x=11, y=7, z=5

What is the value of Sin360+Cos360?
Sin(360)= sin(0)=0 Cos(360)=cos(0)=1 Formula: Sin((360*x)+y)=sin(y) Cos((360*x)+y)=cos(y) Where x is any integer and y is any real number. Sin(360) +cos (360) =1

The minute hand of a circular clock is 15 cm long. How far does the tip of the minute hand move in 1 hour. (Take (π) = 3.14)
r=15cm Time =1 hr The tip of the min hand makes 1 full revolution in 1 hr. We will find the circumference ( distance moved in 1 revolution ) C=2(π)r=2×3.14×15=94cm
